An insurance executive who secretly shot nude videos of ESPN reporter Erin Andrews has been sentenced to 21/2 years in prison.

Michael Barrett pleaded guilty in December to interstate stalking after prosecutors accused him of shooting the videos through hotel peepholes in three cities. He was sentenced Monday in a federal court in Los Angeles after he made a tearful apology.

Barrett, of suburban Chicago, agreed to a 27-month prison sentence after pleading guilty.

But Andrews called him a sexual predator and angrily argued in court for him to be sentenced for as long as the law allows.

Andrews works as a sideline reporter for ESPN's game telecasts. She will also appear on the new season of ABC's Dancing with the Stars .

Djokovic survives third-round scare

In Indian Wells, Calif., Novak Djokovic staved off triple match point in the third set to beat Philipp Kohlschreiber 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 (3) in third-round play at the BNP Paribas Open.

Defending champion and third-ranked Rafael Nadal needed just over an hour to put away Mario Ancic 6-2, 6-2, in front of a sparse stadium court crowd.

U.S. Davis Cup teammates John Isner and Sam Querry were to meet in a night match, after Kim Clijsters continued her comeback against Alisa Kleybanova .

- Andre Agassi told ESPN.com he was "out of line" and apologized for poking fun at Pete Sampras during a charity match last week.

Longtime rivals Agassi and Sampras were wearing microphones during the match, and the crowd at Indian Wells Tennis Garden in California got an earful during an exchange that started lighthearted but turned testy.

At one point Sampras mimicked Agassi's pigeon-toed walk, which drew laughs from the crowd. Then Agassi chided Sampras for being stingy.

Sampras responded with a high, hard serve that forced Agassi, who was teamed with Rafael Nadal, to duck.
